The usage det ails mentioned abo v e are common for all modes except
for the Ground Anomaly & Ca vity mode. F or Ground Anomaly & Ca vity
mode, please read the next section.
Searching in Ground Anomaly & Ca vity Mode
The most import ant thing you need t o kno w before using this mode
is that this mode, diff erent than the other modes, is not a ''det ection''
mode but r ather a '' surv ey'' mode. In this mode, the de vice will det ect all
ground anomalies and ca vities. Anomalies include, but are not limit ed t o
the belo w: Diff erent soil types within the same area, miner alized rocks,
disturbed ground etc. etc. Similarly the ca vities can be list ed as: R ooms,
tunnels, ca v es, cellars and gr a v es underground. It is recommended that
this mode should not be used in r andom fields but only in places with
limit ed size where you suspect the presence of a ca vity.
Before st arting t o use this mode, first be sure that the IPTU sensor is
properly calibr at ed.
R etune height will be sho wn on the height indicat or . By lifting the coil
up t o the retune height, pull the trigger back once and release. The
sw eep height will be mar k ed on the height indicat or . Lo w er the coil t o
the sw eep height and st art searching. While searching, the coil must
st ay within the green area on the indicat or . This is v ery import ant for
the de vice t o perform correct comput ations.
In the Ground Anomaly & Ca vity mode, all signals obt ained from
ground with the mo v ement of the coil (ground eff ect, ground anomaly,
ca vity or met al), are indicat ed by painting on the screen. When you
first st art searching, the 3D gr aph of the signal obt ained from ground
appears bigger and stronger for a short period of time. Then it goes
back t o normal. F or the de vice t o perform accur at e comput ation in this
mode, it has t o collect dat a for a cert ain period of time. Therefore, it is
recommended that you scan an area of minimum 5-10m² (54-108ft²)
around the suspect ed area.
In this mode, ground eff ect is indicat ed by yello w , met als and positiv e
hot rocks by red, and ground anomaly and ca vity are indicat ed by gr ay
or blue color , based on the strength of the signal. In high miner alization,
the de vice may paint in red color just lik e in positiv e hot rocks.
In addition, the signals of t argets paint ed in red are sho wn with a peak
f acing upw ards and the signals of t argets paint ed in gr ay and blue are
sho wn with a pit f acing do wn w ards.
In this mode, the de vice does not pro vide any audio response. All
t argets and signals are only sho wn visually on screen. F or this reason,
you must follo w the screen carefully while searching in this more. If
needed, you can zoom in and out on the screen.
If a met al or a positiv e hot rock is det ect ed, the t arget ID will be
displayed on the ID bar at the t op. The t arget ID bar in this mode is
whit e and not colored lik e the other modes.
NO TE : In this mode, t argets with IDs betw een 0-10 or abo v e 97
indicat e positiv e hot rocks. Sometimes miner alized and v olcanic rocks
may gener at e such IDs and the presence of ground anomalies is v ery
common around them. Therefore, ca vity signals obt ained in such areas
may not alw ays belong t o real ca vities.
The 3D signal gr aph will st ay on screen as long as you do not mo v e
the search coil just lik e in the other modes. Once you mo v e the coil,
it will st ay on screen for about 6 minut es and then disappear . As the
3D det ection ground slides, the signals may f all outside the screen.
If you go back t o the spots where you obt ained the signals within 6
minut es, you can see the 3D gr aphs again.
SC ANNING WITH IPTU SENSOR
Scan function w or ks in non-motion modes only. The de vice will not
switch t o scan screen in motion modes!
T o be able t o obt ain the 3D gr aphs and the shapes of the det ect ed
t argets in the search screen with the IPTU sensor , you must perform
a scan. In order t o do this, please follo w the st eps belo w :
a. First, st ep a w ay from the area where you get the t arget signal.
b. Then, press the scan butt on once and release. The de vice will switch
t o the scan screen. Diff erent than the det ection screen, the scan screen
is a whit e, chequered ground.
c. Press and hold the clear butt on. When you see the coil cent ered on
the screen, release the butt on.
d. By pressing and holding the scan butt on, swing the coil left t o right
slo wly and scan o v er the t arget, st arting from a bit a w ay from where
the signal is st arting and until the coil is complet ely off the t arget
signal. The most import ant things you should pay att ention t o while
scanning are holding the search coil st able and par allel t o the ground,
and slightly o v erlapping each sw eep with no gaps in betw een. You
can see the gaps clearly on screen. If you are in the Ground Anomaly
& Ca vity mode, k eeping the search coil height within the green area
on the indicat or is also v ery import ant.
NO TE : Do not let go of the SC AN butt on as long as you hear the t arget
signal. If the SC AN butt on is released and pressed again, the shapes
will not be correct and there will be gaps betw een the st art and finish
points of the scan.
Except for the Ground Anomaly & Ca vity mode, the areas where the
de vice receiv es a signal will be paint ed in red. In the Ground Anomaly
& Ca vity mode, on the other hand, when you first st art scanning, the
painting will be in red or blue for a short period of time independent
from the t arget. Then the painting will be done according t o the met al
type just lik e in the search screen.
TIP : Once the scanning is complet ed, if you swing the search coil o v er
the edges of the scanned area with short sw eeps and clean out the
spots with no t arget signals, the de vice will obt ain a much bett er r a w
dat a.
e. Once the scanning is complet ed, release the scan butt on.
If you w ant, you can scan multiple t argets at the same time by holding
the SC AN butt on pressed or scan them one by one by pressing and
releasing the SC AN butt on each time. In each case, the 3D gr aphs and
shapes of all t argets will appear in a single result screen.
NO TE : T argets with a signal strength of more than 40 on the
Drift-Met al bar locat ed on the bott om of the screen (not present in
the Ground Anomaly & Ca vity) will yield bett er shapes. F or w eak
signals with a signal strength of less than 40, you can increase the
sensitivity t o boost the signal strength.
NO TE : In the scan screen, if you scan o v er the t argets without pressing
the SC AN butt on, the de vice will produce an audio response but will not
paint on screen. If you press the OK butt on in such a case, the de vice
will go t o the result screen but the screen will be blank.
The timing for refreshing the scan screen (dat a t o be er ased from
screen) is around 8 minut es for non-motion and motion modes and
around 1 6 minut es for the Ground Anomaly & Ca vity mode. In the
scan screen, diff erent than the det ection screens, the visible parts of
the screen will be cleared.
IMPOR T ANT! If strong drifts occur once you go t o the scan screen,
first pull the trigger t o w ard you once and release t o manually retune
the de vice. If the drifts are still present, press the B A CK butt on t o go
t o the det ection screen. Then press the SETTINGS butt on, select the
Aut oR eset option and adjust it t o a le v el t o eliminat e the drifts. In case
the drifts are still present, go t o the scan screen, press the SETTINGS
butt on and lo w er the sensitivity le v el.
IMPOR T ANT! If o v erload occurs in the scan screen, you need t o press
the SETTINGS butt on and lo w er the sensitivity.
T o measure the field by scan process :
You can use the scan process just t o measure the field you are in. In
order t o do this, press and hold the SC AN butt on, st art w alking in a
str aight direction and scan without swinging the coil. You can apply
this process in all fields with diff erent shapes, circular or square. Once
the scanning is complet ed, release the SC AN butt on and press OK. An
empty result screen will appear on screen. Press the OK butt on again
and the scanned area will be sho wn linearly. By using the scale on the
screen, you can see the dimensions of the scanned area with 94% -
97% accur acy.
The sample image belo w belongs t o a result screen of a 200x250cm.
(6.7'x8.3') scanned area.
SEARCHING IN DETECTION SCREEN WITHOUT IPTU SENSOR
While searching in the det ection screen without the IPTU sensor ,
all t arget signals including f alse signals are sho wn on a running
oscilloscope windo w with 2D gr aphs. Based on met al type, the t arget
signal is sho wn in the same color as the ID bar at the t op. The IDs
filt ered out by the Discrimination setting are indicat ed by gr ay color
but the de vice does not pro vide an audio response for these t argets.
Upon t arget det ection, the 2D gr aph of the t arget signal will peak
according t o the signal strength. You can magnify or reduce the signal
gr aph with the zoom function. Upon t arget det ection, the Drift-Met al
bar will fill up in the MET AL direction and the ID of the t arget is sho wn
both in the t arget ID windo w at the bott om and with a cursor on the
color t arget ID bar at the t op.
While searching in this screen, drifts may happen in both directions on
the Drift-Met al bar . When the bar fills up in the DRIFT direction, nothing
will be displayed on the oscilloscope and the de vice will not produce
any audio. When the drift happens in the MET AL direction on the other
hand, a flat, continuous gr aph will appear on the oscilloscope, and the
de vice will produce an audio response.
In such a case, first pull the trigger t o w ards you once and release it t o
manually retune the de vice. If the drifts are still present, you can use
the St abilizer setting t o eliminat e the drifts. Ho w e v er , please remember
that as the St abilizer setting is increased, the de vice may det ect w eak er
signals but will not be able t o det ect the t argets anymore if you hold
the coil st ationary or sw eep back and forth o v er the t arget.
